Answer:

  x = 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can only solve for x if the triangles are similar. The arrows on the left and right legs say those are parallel. Since alternate interior angles at each of the transversals are congruent, the triangles are AA similar.

ΔABC ~ ΔDEC, so we have ...

  EC/ED = BC/BA

  x/(18 cm) = (35 cm)/(45 cm)

  x = (18 cm)(7/9) = 14 cm

Answer:

1.D

2.B

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The x intercept is the value of x when y is zero. We know that the x intercept is 0.5 so we must find a value of k that will make our rational function equal zero when x=0.5

[tex]y = \frac{k}{x + 1} - 2[/tex]

Substitute x=0.5 and y=0.

[tex]0 = \frac{k}{0.5 + 1} - 2[/tex]

[tex]0= \frac{k}{1.5} - 2[/tex]

[tex]2 = \frac{k}{1.5} [/tex]

[tex]3 = k[/tex]

D is the Answer.

2. We need to consider the function

[tex] \frac{2x}{1 - {x}^{2} } [/tex]

Since the numerator is a linear term, it will have one zero to the equation using fundamental Theorem of Algebra so C is wrong.

This is a rational function because we are dividing two polynomials by each other and q(x) or the denominator isnt zero. So D is wrong.

The denominator is a quadratic term so it will have two vertical asymptote according to the fundamental Theorem of Algebra So A is Wrong.

B is Right, the equation isnt defined at x=0 because when we plug 0 into the denominator, it doesn't equate to zero.

Answer:

0.9703 = 97.03% probability that 15 or more of them would agree with the claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they agree with the claim, or they do not. The probability of an adult agreeing with the claim is independent of any other adult, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

75% of adults believe that an unattractive smile hurts career success.

This means that [tex]p = 0.75[/tex]

Suppose that 25 adults are randomly selected.

This means that [tex]n = 25[/tex]

What is the probability that 15 or more of them would agree with the claim?

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 15) = 1 - P(X < 15)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 15) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + ... + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14)[/tex]

14 is below the mean, so we start below and go until the probability is 0. Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 14) = C_{25,14}.(0.75)^{14}.(0.25)^{11} = 0.0189[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 13) = C_{25,13}.(0.75)^{13}.(0.25)^{12} = 0.0074[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 12) = C_{25,12}.(0.75)^{12}.(0.25)^{13} = 0.0025[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 11) = C_{25,11}.(0.75)^{11}.(0.25)^{14} = 0.0007[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{25,10}.(0.75)^{10}.(0.25)^{15} = 0.0002[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{25,9}.(0.75)^{9}.(0.25)^{16} \approx 0[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X < 15) = P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) = 0.0002 + 0.0007 + 0.0025 + 0.0074 + 0.0189 = 0.0297[/tex]

And

[tex]P(X \geq 15) = 1 - P(X < 15) = 1 - 0.0297 = 0.9703[/tex]

0.9703 = 97.03% probability that 15 or more of them would agree with the claim.

Answer:

7 and 1 over 2 cubic inches ( 7 1/2 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The height = 1/4 * 5 = 1 1/4 = 1.25

The width = 1/4 * 8 = 2

The length = 1/4 * 12 = 3

Volume = 1.25 * 2 * 3 = 2.5 * 3 = 7.5

0.5 is represented as 1/2

So answer : fraction 7 and 1 over 2 cubic inches or 7 1/2 in³

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given arc FG then the central angle is the angle at the centre subtended by FG , that is

central angle = ∠ FQG

The central angle is B i.e ∠FQG

A central angle exists an angle whose vertex stands present at the center of a circle created by the two radii as the sides of the angle.

In Mathematics, an “arc” exists as a smooth curve joining two endpoints. In general, an arc exists one of the portions of a circle. It is essentially a part of the circumference of a circle. Arc exists as a part of a curve. An arc can be a portion of some other curved constitutions like an ellipse but mostly guides to a circle.

The angle substended by the arc would be ∠FQG.

Answer:

Sin A = 15 / 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a right angled triangle, we are to obtain the Sin of the angle A ;

Using trigonometry, the sin of the angle A, Sin A is the ratio of the angle opposite A to the hypotenus of the right angle triangle.

Hence. Sin A = opposite / hypotenus

Opposite = 15 ; hypotenus = 17

Sin A = 15 / 17

Answer:

x = π/12 and x = π/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

2sin^2(2x) + 1 = 3sin(2x)

2sin^2(2x) - 3sin(2x) + 1 = 0

(2sin(2x) - 1)(sin(2x) - 1) = 0

2sin(2x) - 1 = 0

2sin(2x) = 1

sin(2x) = 1/2

When there is a variable n = π/6, sin(π/6) = 1/2 [refer to the unit circle].

2x = π/6

x = π/12

sin(2x) - 1 = 0

sin(2x) = 1

When there is a variable n = π/2, sin(π/2) = 1 [refer to the unit circle].

2x = π/2

x = π/4

Considering the given function, we have that:

a) 28.31 years.

b) 0.3382 years a decade.

c) 2.6184.

The median age of the U.S. population in t decades after 1960 is:

f(t) = -0.2176t³ + 1.962t² - 2.833t + 29.4.

1970 is one decade after 1960, hence the median was:

f(1) = -0.2176 x 1³ + 1.962 x 1² - 2.833 x 1 + 29.4 = 28.31 years.

The rate of change was is the derivative when t = 1, hence:

f'(t) = -0.6528t² + 3.924t - 2.933

f'(1) = -0.6528 x 1² + 3.924 x 1 - 2.933 = 0.3382 years a decade.

The second derivative is:

f''(t) = -1.3056t + 3.924

Hence:

f''(1) = -1.3056 x 1 + 3.924 = 2.6184.

Answer:

0.7734 = 77.34% probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Probability above 50%, which means that this is likely to occur.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

About 12.5% of restaurant bills are incorrect.

This means that [tex]p = 0.125[/tex]

200 bills are selected at random

This means that [tex]n = 200[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 200*0.125 = 25[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.125*0.875} = 4.677[/tex]

Find the probability that at least 22 will contain an error.

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 22 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 21.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 21.5. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{21.5 - 25}{4.677}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2266.

1 - 0.2266 = 0.7734

0.7734 = 77.34% probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Probability above 50%, which means that this is likely to occur.

Setting equal to zero

0 =  (x - 3)^2(x + 5)

Using the zero product property

Answer:

u = 17[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If v = 17 (it is because it is a right triangle, so the pythagorean theorum works, and triangles are 180 degrees, so 180 - 90 = 90, so the other two angles are 45 degrees, meaning that v is the same length as 17.) then
